I believe what Michael Ginat wrote about Bobby Fischer.  Bobby Fischer is a
tremendously gifted chess grandmaster.  He had to battle the entire Soviet Chess
School by himself.  For a long time, he just played 1.e4 and the Sicilian
Najdorf, exclusively, no matter who he was facing.  This enabled the Soviet
masters ample time to prepare for his "limited" opening repertoire.  But as we
all know,  Fischer almost always found the right replays overboard.  This should
tell us how strong Fischer can be even without opening preparations  which
modern grandmasters depend heavily upon.
